MAN, I can no longer pass off my 2003 as brand new. Sux0rs. This new one pwns mine.

I have a 2003 and I'm considering trading.

For a car that looks 90% like it?

I never understood the whole trading in a for another vehicle of the same generation. A friend of mine has a 2004 Tribute and she wants to trade in for a 2005 or 2006 b/c the HVAC controls looks "nicer" :roll:

My car is higher mileage, it has 50K miles. But at the same time, according to autotrader it's still worth ~15K.

06 VP is similar to 03 LX in features. 06 VP will probably invoice 16K. In theory, I could do a trade for 1-2K before tax. I would basically be paying 1-2K to erase all my mileage.

Also, the engine is revised for 06, probably more aggressive cams. The 03-05 accord has CRV cams. And I would like standard side airbags, these are considered life saving devices in side impacts which mine does not have.

Maybe it's because I don't own one, but the new one really doesn't look much different from the current one to me, and I personally have no problems with the current design. Really don't understand why people say it's so ugly, guess my taste is different.

It could be better looking. I have an 04 and it's kinda meh. I like the coupe better.

All Honda navi's I've ever seen (beginning with first gen in Odyssey minivan) have all had touchscreen, and I expect this one will as well.

Honda introduced voice control in the new Accord when it launched, so I'd expect this one to have voice control as well...probably with an expanded vocabulary too.
